In App Provisioning PKErrorHTTPResponseStatusCodeKey=500
Hello, we are developing in app provisioning of our American Express network cards. After clicking add to apple wallet in our app, I launch the PKAddPaymentPassViewController and click next. It loads for a few seconds and then I get: [<private>] ProvisioningOperationComposer: Step '<private>' failed with error Error Domain=PKProvisioningErrorDomain Code=5 UserInfo={PKErrorHTTPResponseStatusCodeKey=500} Does anyone have any insight on what this error means?

Apple Pay pre-auth: how to not show hold amount (gas-station style) for usage-based rentals?
We’re building a usage-based rental flow. The final charge is only known after the session ends (like gas pumps). We want the same Apple Pay UX that gas stations like at a gas station has: the user does not see a pre-authorization amount up front; they only see “approved” and later the final posted amount on the statement. What we observe (gas stations / desired UX) When paying at gas station with Apple Pay (card-present), the user confirms their card (double-tap) but no pre-auth amount is shown in Wallet/notification UI. The small notification is from the bank (not the merchant) and shows only bank + merchant name, no total. After fueling ends, the final amount appears on the statement from the merchant. What happens in our flow (current behavior) Platform: Apple Pay via Stripe (Apple Pay on the Web with QR → mobile Safari Wallet sheet). When a user confirms payment, the pre-authorization amount is shown immediately to the user (appears like a charge from the user’s perspective). We want to avoid showing that amount, matching the pay-at-pump experience.

Apple Pay Test cards not added to Wallet
For Apple Pay testing, I have tried the following: Sign into the Sandbox Account via Developer Settings: Settings > Developer > Sandbox Account Keep your main Apple ID for everything else Add Test Cards to Wallet: Try adding the test card numbers (MasterCard and Visa Debit, as we support only those) Apple provides in their documentation. Unfortunately, none of them are added to the wallet. All the time it gives 'Could Not Add Card'. I tried on devices with iOS 18+. Can anyone advise on this? Thanks

Unable to retrieve secure element pass after adding to Apple Wallet?
I am adding In-App provisioning to my app. I am able to access the Apple Pay Sandbox and I have successfully tested adding a secure element/payment pass to Apple Wallet. However, once the pass has been added to the wallet, I can not access or retrieve the pass from my app. I have confirmed with the PNO that the PNO Pass Metadata Configuration in the testing environment include the correct metadata for "associatedApplicationIdentifiers" and "associatedStoreIdentifiers". Does anyone know why I am having this issue and how I can resolve it? Steps used to access pass in Apple Wallet I am unable to view the pass when I attempt to access it using the PKPassLibrary function as follows: let library = PKPassLibrary() if #available(iOS 13.4, *) { // This returns an empty array library.passes(of: .secureElement) } else { // This also returns an empty array library.passes(of: .payment) } // This returns an empty array too library.passes() Steps used to add pass to Apple Wallet These are the steps I follow to add the card: I create a PKAddPaymentPassRequestConfiguration I use this config to instantiate a PKAddPaymentPassViewController. I provide the nonce, nonceSignature, and certificates to my PNO along with the card data. I receive the activationData, encryptedPassData, and ephemeralPublicKey from my PNO and create a PKAddPaymentPassRequest using this data. I add the pass to Apple Wallet. In the addPaymentPassViewController callback, I am able to view the pass data from the .didFinishAdding pass: PKPaymentPass? variable. I am also able to see that the pass has been added from Apple Wallet app. I am not able to access the pass using PKPassLibrary().passes() at this point. I am not able to access the pass at any point after adding it either.

domainName missing from create payment sessions request in sandbox
We have been using ApplePay on the web for years, but we are running into a problem since today in sandbox where domainName is missing from the create payment sessions request. We haven't changed anything related to this request any time recently. Static payment sessions url being hit in sandbox: https://apple-pay-gateway-cert.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession request format: "merchantIdentifier": "merchant.com.identifier", "displayName": "Test Store", "initiative": "web", "initiativeContext": "test.example.com", "domainName": "test.example.com" response format: { "epochTimestamp": 1763533367972, "expiresAt": 1763536967972, "merchantSessionIdentifier": "<merchantSessionIdentifier>", "nonce": "<nonce>", "merchantIdentifier": "<merchantIdentifier>", "displayName": "Test Store", "signature": "<signature>", "initiative": "web", "initiativeContext": "test.example.com", "signedFields": [ "merchantIdentifier", "merchantSessionIdentifier", "initiative", "initiativeContext", "displayName", "nonce" ], "operationalAnalyticsIdentifier": "Test Store:<identifier>", "retries": 0, "pspId": "<pspId>" } Production create session request to https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession is behaving as expected, sending the following fields as response: epochTimestamp, expiresAt, merchantSessionIdentifier, nonce, merchantIdentifier, domainName, displayName, signature, operationalAnalyticsIdentifier, retries, pspId Claude seems to suggest this is a response when Messages for Business is enabled, but this ApplePay Payment Processing merchant is only configured for Apple Pay on the Web. Any ideas or pointers to check for? We are worried this will spill over in production as well, which will break our ApplePay integration. Thanks in advance!

Apple Pay Merchant Validation TLS Error
Hello, Please help. We have been experiencing what appears to be a TLS handshake error in our Apple Pay merchant validation requests (2-way TLS) since June 25, 2025. We are aware of the encryption algorithm changes made in February 2025, and our system was functioning correctly at that time. However, the error started occurring suddenly and only recently. Could you please clarify the following points? Have there been any changes to the TLS configuration (cipher suites, certificates, protocol versions, etc.) on the Apple Pay server side since June 2025? Have there been any updates to the specifications or recommended settings for merchant validation requests? Is there any way to contact Apple for technical support regarding this issue other than through the Developer Forums? Our Merchant Identity Certificate has already been renewed and is confirmed to be valid.

Apple Pay In-App Provisioning – Apple server failure when adding a card
During Apple Pay in-app provisioning (EV_ECC_v2), our iOS app successfully obtains the issuer provisioning certificates and generates cryptographic material. The flow fails when Apple posts the card blob to Apple’s broker (card creation step), returning HTTP 500 from .../broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards. Steps: Call issuerProvisioningCertificates?encryptionVersion=EV_ECC_v2 → 200 OK; returns ECC leaf + Apple Root CA chain; nonce=2a831be4. 2. Build {encryptedCardData, activationData, ephemeralPublicKey} 3. POST /broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards Expected: 200 OK on /broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards, or 5xx with a descriptive error if payload/cryptography is invalid. Observed: 500 Internal Server Error from Apple broker on /cards (labeled “eligibility” in PassKit logs), causing a terminal failure in Wallet UI.

Apple Pay Push Provisioning Requirement for Issuers Using Third-Party Mobile Banking Apps (Jan 15, 2026)
We are a regulated financial institution and Apple Pay issuer seeking clarification on the in-app push provisioning requirement and the January 15, 2026 timeline. Like many community financial institutions: Our mobile banking app is issuer-branded but provided by a third-party vendor Apple Pay enablement and tokenization are handled by a separate card processor While we support Apple’s goals and understand the issuer is ultimately responsible, delivery of in-app provisioning is dependent on third-party vendor roadmaps and cross-vendor integrations that are outside our direct control. Despite active, good-faith efforts with both vendors, current platform constraints make the January 15, 2026 deadline challenging. We would appreciate clarification on: How Apple evaluates compliance when an issuer’s mobile app is built and maintained by a third party Whether any transitional flexibility or phased enforcement is expected for issuers showing documented progress Whether approved web-based provisioning may be acceptable as an interim option How issuers should document due diligence when vendor dependencies delay implementation Additional guidance would help many credit unions and community banks plan appropriately and remain compliant. Thank you for your guidance.

Error during In-App Provisioning (eligibility step, PKErrorHTTPResponseStatusCodeKey=500)
Hello, We are implementing in-app provisioning in our fintech app; the card issuer is a third party, so we have limited control and visibility. We have ruled out the causes we could investigate on our side and on the card issuer’s side. We are reaching out to ask for your help in understanding what is going wrong so we can fix it. What happens: User taps “Add to Apple Wallet” → we present PKAddPaymentPassViewController → they tap Next → after a few seconds the flow fails with "Set Up Later" alert. Device log: ProvisioningOperationComposer: Step 'eligibility' failed with error <PKProvisioningError: severity: 'terminal'; internalDebugDescriptions: '( "eligibility request failure", "Received HTTP 500" )'; underlyingError: 'Error Domain=PKPaymentWebServiceErrorDomain Code=0 "Unexpected error." UserInfo={PKErrorHTTPResponseStatusCodeKey=500, NSLocalizedDescription=Unexpected error.}'; userInfo: '{ PKErrorHTTPResponseStatusCodeKey = 500; }'; Feedback Assistant ID: FB22007923 (Error during the In-App Provisioning process)

The purchaseDate timestamp on Apple's renewal orders is always 8 hours later than the time the notification is received.
Hello everyone. I encountered a problem when integrating Apple Pay. I obtained all the renewal orders through the Apple interface, and their purchaseDate is 8 hours later than the actual payment time. Why is this happening? According to the documentation, the purchaseDate value provided by Apple is a millisecond timestamp that represents the actual payment time of the user, so theoretically there shouldn’t be any timezone issues. This works well in client-initiated subscriptions, but in renewal scenarios, the purchaseDate becomes unreliable. Could this be due to some configuration in the configuration center? For example, I actually received an Apple notification at 1746686911000 (2025-05-08 06:48:31 Etc/GMT). However, the data returned by the Apple interface is as shown below: { "appAccountToken": "xxxx", "bundleId": "xxxx", "currency": "GBP", "environment": "Production", "expiresDate": 1762616831000, "inAppOwnershipType": "PURCHASED", "isUpgraded": false, "offerDiscountType": "", "offerIdentifier": "", "offerType": 0, "originalPurchaseDate": 1746456432000, "originalTransactionId": "320002311698411", "price": 39990, "productId": "xxxx", "purchaseDate": 1746715631000, "quantity": 1, "revocationDate": 0, "revocationReason": 0, "signedDate": 1746687092825, "storefront": "GBR", "storefrontId": "xxxx", "subscriptionGroupIdentifier": "xxxx", "transactionId": "320002315815857", "transactionReason": "RENEWAL", "type": "Auto-Renewable Subscription", "webOrderLineItemId": "320001062124562" } You can see that the purchaseDate is 1746715631000 (2025-05-08 14:48:31 Etc/GMT), which is even later than the current time. Can someone explain this behavior that is inconsistent with the documentation, or did I do something wrong? I would be very grateful for any help anyone can provide.

Apple Pay on the Web — Platform Integrator: Is sub-merchant registration required when all transactions occur on a single hosted domain?
Hi Apple Pay Team, We are building a QR-based payment platform and planning to integrate Apple Pay on the Web as a Payment Platform Integrator. Our setup: We operate a single domain (e.g., pay.example.com) where all Apple Pay transactions take place When a customer scans a merchant's QR code, our hosted page opens with the Apple Pay button We process payments on behalf of multiple merchants (receivers), each with a separate merchant ID at our payment processor We want to use a single Payment Platform Integrator ID with one set of certificates (Merchant Identity + Payment Processing) The payment processor handles sub-merchant identification and settlement to the correct receiver via card network (Visa/Mastercard) sub-merchant fields Our question: Since all transactions happen on our single domain, is it mandatory to register each sub-merchant via the Apple Pay Web Merchant Registration API (/paymentservices/registerMerchant) and use their partnerInternalMerchantIdentifier in the payment session request? Or is it acceptable to use our Platform Integrator's own merchant identifier for all payment sessions, given that: Only one domain is involved Sub-merchant identification is handled at the payment processor / card network level Our domain verification file is already hosted and verified We would appreciate clarity on the correct approach before we proceed with our integration. Thank you.

Apple Pay Sandbox: onpaymentauthorized not fired after successful authentication (started March 6)
Hello, We are encountering an issue with Apple Pay on the Web in the sandbox environment where payments cannot be completed because the onpaymentauthorized event is not triggered. The same implementation was working normally until March 5, but the issue started occurring consistently from March 6 without any changes to our code, certificates, or merchant configuration. Environment Apple Pay on the Web (JavaScript) Safari (iOS / macOS) Apple Pay Sandbox Merchant domain verified Merchant validation succeeds Observed Flow The Apple Pay flow proceeds normally until authentication: User clicks the Apple Pay button ApplePaySession.begin() is called onvalidatemerchant fires Merchant validation request succeeds completeMerchantValidation() is called Apple Pay sheet is displayed User authenticates with Face ID / Touch ID onpaymentauthorized is never triggered Because this event never fires, the payment token is not returned and the payment cannot proceed. ApplePaySession Request { "countryCode": "JP", "currencyCode": "JPY", "merchantCapabilities": ["supports3DS"], "supportedNetworks": ["visa", "masterCard"], "total": { "label": "Test Payment", "type": "final", "amount": "100" } } Merchant Validation Merchant validation succeeds and returns a valid session from Apple. Relevant fields from the merchant session: merchantIdentifier: 35A786BE6AB4... domainName: secure.telecom-awstest.com displayName: ApplePay Additional Notes Apple Pay sheet appears normally Authentication completes successfully No JavaScript errors are logged onpaymentauthorized is never fired Issue occurs consistently in the sandbox environment Confirmed across multiple iOS versions Question Has anyone experienced a similar issue recently in the Apple Pay sandbox environment, or are there any known changes that could cause the onpaymentauthorized event not to fire after authentication? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Apple Pay with one domain and several PSP integration
We already have an apple pay integration with a psp.
We have a merchant id with an identity certificate, a processing certificate and merchant domains. We are working to integrate an other psp. This psp have one csr (processing certificate) by customer. All the payment will be processed on the same domain. We have understood that it is not possible to have different processing certificates for a merchant id. So we can not reused our existing merchant id.

 On the other hand, it seems that it is not possible to have different merchant ids on the same domain (because of the domain verification). But all payments are processed on the same domain.

 Do you think there is a solution ?
Is there a recommended workaround for this scenario?

The purchaseDate timestamp on Apple's renewal orders is always 8 hours later than the time the notification is received.
Hello everyone. I encountered a problem when integrating Apple Pay. I obtained all the renewal orders through the Apple interface, and their purchaseDate is 8 hours later than the actual payment time. Why is this happening? According to the documentation, the purchaseDate value provided by Apple is a millisecond timestamp that represents the actual payment time of the user, so theoretically there shouldn’t be any timezone issues. This works well in client-initiated subscriptions, but in renewal scenarios, the purchaseDate becomes unreliable. Could this be due to some configuration in the configuration center? For example, I actually received an Apple notification at 1746686911000 (2025-05-08 06:48:31 Etc/GMT). However, the data returned by the Apple interface is as shown below: { "appAccountToken": "xxxx", "bundleId": "xxxx", "currency": "GBP", "environment": "Production", "expiresDate": 1762616831000, "inAppOwnershipType": "PURCHASED", "isUpgraded": false, "offerDiscountType": "", "offerIdentifier": "", "offerType": 0, "originalPurchaseDate": 1746456432000, "originalTransactionId": "320002311698411", "price": 39990, "productId": "xxxx", "purchaseDate": 1746715631000, "quantity": 1, "revocationDate": 0, "revocationReason": 0, "signedDate": 1746687092825, "storefront": "GBR", "storefrontId": "xxxx", "subscriptionGroupIdentifier": "xxxx", "transactionId": "320002315815857", "transactionReason": "RENEWAL", "type": "Auto-Renewable Subscription", "webOrderLineItemId": "320001062124562" } You can see that the purchaseDate is 1746715631000 (2025-05-08 14:48:31 Etc/GMT), which is even later than the current time. Can someone explain this behavior that is inconsistent with the documentation, or did I do something wrong? I would be very grateful for any help anyone can provide.

Apple Pay on the Web — Platform Integrator: Is sub-merchant registration required when all transactions occur on a single hosted domain?
Hi Apple Pay Team, We are building a QR-based payment platform and planning to integrate Apple Pay on the Web as a Payment Platform Integrator. Our setup: We operate a single domain (e.g., pay.example.com) where all Apple Pay transactions take place When a customer scans a merchant's QR code, our hosted page opens with the Apple Pay button We process payments on behalf of multiple merchants (receivers), each with a separate merchant ID at our payment processor We want to use a single Payment Platform Integrator ID with one set of certificates (Merchant Identity + Payment Processing) The payment processor handles sub-merchant identification and settlement to the correct receiver via card network (Visa/Mastercard) sub-merchant fields Our question: Since all transactions happen on our single domain, is it mandatory to register each sub-merchant via the Apple Pay Web Merchant Registration API (/paymentservices/registerMerchant) and use their partnerInternalMerchantIdentifier in the payment session request? Or is it acceptable to use our Platform Integrator's own merchant identifier for all payment sessions, given that: Only one domain is involved Sub-merchant identification is handled at the payment processor / card network level Our domain verification file is already hosted and verified We would appreciate clarity on the correct approach before we proceed with our integration. Thank you.

Apple Pay Sandbox: onpaymentauthorized not fired after successful authentication (started March 6)
Hello, We are encountering an issue with Apple Pay on the Web in the sandbox environment where payments cannot be completed because the onpaymentauthorized event is not triggered. The same implementation was working normally until March 5, but the issue started occurring consistently from March 6 without any changes to our code, certificates, or merchant configuration. Environment Apple Pay on the Web (JavaScript) Safari (iOS / macOS) Apple Pay Sandbox Merchant domain verified Merchant validation succeeds Observed Flow The Apple Pay flow proceeds normally until authentication: User clicks the Apple Pay button ApplePaySession.begin() is called onvalidatemerchant fires Merchant validation request succeeds completeMerchantValidation() is called Apple Pay sheet is displayed User authenticates with Face ID / Touch ID onpaymentauthorized is never triggered Because this event never fires, the payment token is not returned and the payment cannot proceed. ApplePaySession Request { "countryCode": "JP", "currencyCode": "JPY", "merchantCapabilities": ["supports3DS"], "supportedNetworks": ["visa", "masterCard"], "total": { "label": "Test Payment", "type": "final", "amount": "100" } } Merchant Validation Merchant validation succeeds and returns a valid session from Apple. Relevant fields from the merchant session: merchantIdentifier: 35A786BE6AB4... domainName: secure.telecom-awstest.com displayName: ApplePay Additional Notes Apple Pay sheet appears normally Authentication completes successfully No JavaScript errors are logged onpaymentauthorized is never fired Issue occurs consistently in the sandbox environment Confirmed across multiple iOS versions Question Has anyone experienced a similar issue recently in the Apple Pay sandbox environment, or are there any known changes that could cause the onpaymentauthorized event not to fire after authentication? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Apple Pay with one domain and several PSP integration
We already have an apple pay integration with a psp.
We have a merchant id with an identity certificate, a processing certificate and merchant domains. We are working to integrate an other psp. This psp have one csr (processing certificate) by customer. All the payment will be processed on the same domain. We have understood that it is not possible to have different processing certificates for a merchant id. So we can not reused our existing merchant id.

 On the other hand, it seems that it is not possible to have different merchant ids on the same domain (because of the domain verification). But all payments are processed on the same domain.

 Do you think there is a solution ?
Is there a recommended workaround for this scenario?
